Buzz2lips :
this video is wrong. the motor will run cooler at 240 volts than at 208 volts. less amps for the same load.

testing motors rated for 208v I used a step down transformer as I only had 230v available. No issues. Motors were only rated for 208v. Newer motors run on 208 and 230v. Check plate on motor.

This video is quite correct, although 208volts is strange and not very common. Simply, exceed the nameplate voltage by 10% with no added protection and this will happen.

it's wired for 208 coils in saturation

try following the nameplate ratings and forget all your hypotheticals

230 is a universal voltage for 208 or 240

It’s hard to explain this, but 230 is more than 208

all are builds are 480v 3 ph.and 208v 3ph. some of our motors data plates are 3 ph. 208,230 or 460v on one motor.

I ran a 208v garage heater on 240 for years with no problem

I’ll explain why because that’s not a motor. It’s and alternator

And then what if you have a wild leg or a Delta? which some places have for extra voltage to start motors
